    Okay in all seriousness, who do y'all want next? If I change my avatar to them we'll get them in 2 years.

    doubt it. The 2025 draft is so far away that you probably give up that leverage. If it was a 2023 I would expect it though.

    SMH.

    Another "win now" trade for a team no where close to contention. With Grant on board can the team re-sign Simons and Nurk without going into the Lux Tax?

    They wouldn't have done it if they couldn't.

    So losing the N.O pick when they made the playoffs, did not make a difference in obtaining Grant.
    We did not use #7 and probably never even considered it. Shocking.....

    I like Grant at this value, but hope the Blazers then don't sign him to that ridiculous extension of $28M/year.

    I have to imagine OG is out of play now because we just used the TPE on Grant. Unless we massively overpay....

    I'm not sure... who is the best case scenario to trade for? Or should we keep the pick? Kinda want Daniels now. He could play 1 2 or 3. He is a willing passer to feed Dame/Ant/Grant and he's a great defender.

    Is 7 and Bledsoe an overpay?

    I don’t think they can extend him until December anyway. They can see how he fits and make a decision later.

    Also people crying about second rounders COME ON! Look at the value here! We turned a quarter and a couple of Nickels into a Half-Dollar. That is always, always a win in the NBA when you consolidate like that.

    That's an underpay. They want a future and a current it sounds like.

    Kevin Durant. Make it happen.

    Dame
    Hart
    Grant
    Durant
    Nurk

    Would have to be some combination of players once Simons is able to be sign-and-traded
